Good evening. The headlines: French prosecutors to appeal the court | :00:07. | :00:13. | |
verdict which spared two guilty Condor crew jail after their ferry | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
hit a fishing boat killing its captain. | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
Parents battling to save their childrens primary school claim | :00:20. | :00:27. | |
they're being treated unfairly. If we don't make these cuts, 31 million | :00:27. | :00:33. | |
we are trying to save, as an island, what is the alternative? | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
And living in pain — why walking down the stairs used to be agony for | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
this man and what doctors are doing about it. It makes you physically | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
and mentally exhausted. The Condor captain and first officer | :00:44. | :00:58. | |
who were found guilty of manslaughter after a fisherman died | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
after being hit by a passenger ferry could still face jail. Former | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
Captain Paul Le Romancer and First Officer Yves Tournon walked free | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
earlier this month with suspended prison sentences of a year and six | :01:08. | :01:16. | |
months respectively. But tonight, prosecutors are asking a higher | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
French court to reconsider that. Found guilty but set free. Relief | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
for the former Condor captain and first officer as the court in | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
Normandy spares them jail. But anger outside the court. The family of | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
Philippe Lesaulnier, the fisherman killed by their negligence, demanded | :01:33. | :01:43. | |
justice. TRANSLATION: We were at least expecting they would go to | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
prison so that people understand you cannot kill people like that. You | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
have to be careful. The original trial found Le Romancer and Tournon | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
weren't paying enough attention when the Vitesse they were in charge of | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
crashed into Mr Lesaulnier's boat in March 2011. The father of four was | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
killed instantly in the collision. The ferry was on its way to Jersey | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
from St Malo in thick fog. Now the French prosecutor who called for | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
them to spend time behind bars, is now appealing the decision to give | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
them suspended sentences. Condor Ferries is not facing criminal | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
prosecution, but a civil court hearing in December will hear claims | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
for compensation against the company. | :02:21. | :02:29. | |
Meanwhile, an investigation into the death of a French sailor who went | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
missing from a yacht in Guernsey waters has closed. Three other crew | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
members onboard the Jouvente were arrested and later released on bail | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
after the body of the missing man washed up on a beach in France two | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
days after his disappearance on the twelfth of May. Guernsey Police say | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
the investigation has now been closed after law officers decided | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
there was insufficient evidence to proceed. | :02:50. | :02:51. | |
Parents battling to save their children's primary school in | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
Guernsey say the way they've been treated is unfair. After public | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
consultations on dozens of issues, from recycling to taxation, there's | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
anger that the possible closure of St Sampsons Infants and St Andrews | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
Primary hasn't been put to the public. Mike Wilkins reports. | :03:04. | :03:12. | |
Learning all about the English language, and soon these children at | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
St Andrews Primary School will learn more about their fate. The States is | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
trying to eliminate its multi—million pound deficit. So | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
every government department is under pressure to make savings. For the | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
Education board that means closing two schools, St Sampson's Infant | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
School and St Andrew's Primary School. Sarah Barrett's children | :03:31. | :03:37. | |
attend St Andrews. She says closing the school will affect the whole | :03:37. | :03:47. | |
island. I think, there to say that it is not just about our two schools | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
closing, it is about... It affects the whole island and all the primary | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
schools on it. This threat of closure is nothing new. The | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
Education Department tried to close them four years ago, but the States | :03:58. | :04:06. | |
threw it out, so why try again? There is a seven, 8000 saving, and | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
we as an island have to make the savings. We don't think it affects | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
the educational outcome of our children. But if we don't make these | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
cuts, it is 31 million we are trying to save, as an island, what is the | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
alternative? Do we have more taxes, to islanders want to do that? A | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
difficult place to be and a difficult decision to make, and one | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
that the States will have to make next month. | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
The States of Guernsey's overall revenue is down by £10 million this | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
year. The Treasury Minister told States members at today's meeting | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
that falling income tax receipts and stamp duty on property sales are to | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
blame. It come as the Treasury warns some of the major capital projects | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
on the States' to—do list may not happen. Deputies are debating the | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
governments top spending priorities — from rebuilding schools, to buying | :04:59. | :05:08. | |
a new sea fisheries boat. Funding is a key part of the issue. We have | :05:08. | :05:14. | |
already said that we will need to return to the States with proposals | :05:15. | :05:22. | |
on how to fund it. That will have to recognise what our income | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
expectations are next year as well. Imagine having someone shadow you in | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
your job, only to step into your shoes once you have to leave because | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
your housing licence has run out. That's what's happening at some | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
businesses in Guernsey. The "stepping in" programme is aimed at | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
getting more local job—seekers into long—term work. And its getting more | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
and more popular, as Penny Elderfield reports. | :05:41. | :05:49. | |
A good hotel is only as good as the staff that help run it. For this | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
one, that means bringing in around a dozen seasonal workers. They are | :05:53. | :05:59. | |
keen to get more local people and those jobs, managers have signed up | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
to a new scheme. It allows someone to shadow a licence holder while | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
being paid by the States, so they can learn the tricks of the trade. | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
We have seen that it is quite difficult for people to get | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
interested. They may be do one day and they don't get a true feel for | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
what you can offer them. We know that they are keen to work, they | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
want to get themselves back into the workforce. This gives them an | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
opportunity, and hopefully, it will help both employer and employee. It | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
appears to be another way of filling all these jobs while bringing down | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
unemployment figures. Initially, take—up was not great. It is quite | :06:39. | :06:46. | |
hard to get the right kind of employers. It is definitely picking | :06:46. | :06:52. | |
up momentum now. We have currently got for job—seekers in secured | :06:52. | :06:58. | |
employment. Two are currently on the scheme. We have already held three | :06:58. | :07:07. | |
interviews this week. When booking is coming, we need to cancel... The | :07:07. | :07:16. | |
numbers may be smaller the moment, but it is important. | :07:16. | :07:24. | |
With one in ten people suffering from chronic pain in Jersey, health | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
professionals are increasingly looking to treat them. Top doctors | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
are meeting in the Channel Islands this week to discuss what they are | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
calling a pain epidemic. Pam called field has been to meet one man who | :07:38. | :07:44. | |
is looking to beat his agony one day at a time. | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
This part of Michael's day used to be agonising for him. He had to give | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
up being an activity instructor when he got arthritis in his knee and | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
suffered with chronic pain for years. It draws you, it makes you | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
physically and mentally exhausted. It is with you all the time and, | :08:00. | :08:08. | |
just walking a few steps, it kicks in. Sitting down, getting in the | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
wrong position, lying in the wrong position right. It wakes you up, it | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
woke me up constantly at night. And that sort of chronic pain is | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
something around one in ten people in Jersey are living with. Today, | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
doctors from across the British Isles gathered on the island — to | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
discuss how they can provide more specialist treatment. Getting access | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
to this expertise is difficult. We have got quite a small team in | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
Jersey, but we have got massive population problems. It is epidemic | :08:37. | :08:43. | |
chronic pain. 10,000 people on the island are affected by chronic pain. | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
We are just a small team. It is a big problem. We need to train | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
primary care to better deal with this and realise the limitations of | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
the prescription pad. That could mean relying less on opium—based | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
drugs such as morphine, which can be addictive. As well as medicating, | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
doctors are hoping to encourage a change in attitude. People tend to | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
take a slightly more passive approach to their health. We are | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
trying to inspire and activate them. There are things you can do to | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
assist yourself to improve your quality—of—life and live more | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
positively. A lot of that is around lifestyle change, partly what we are | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
assisting people with. That's the sort of help Michael got when he | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
visited the pain clinic in Jersey, and it's worked for him. They have | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
been right all the way along. Exercise has really helped me a lot, | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
got me back to a reasonable level of fitness. I am back to doing kayaking | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
again. Recently he had a knee operation, and while he's still in | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
pain at times, now it doesn't stop him from doing what he loves. Thanks | :09:42. | :09:50. | |
to Michael for sharing his story. Let's get the weather forecast. Good | :09:50. | :09:57. | |
evening. We have got reasonable weather to look forward to as we | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
head towards the weekend. There are front or bands of cloud around, | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
that. Produced the odd shower every now and then, but for the most part | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
tomorrow, after a cloudy start, there will be some sunshine. The | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
breeze picks up which lifts all that low cloud, mist and fog. This low | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
pressure has been around for most of the week, it is closer over the next | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
24 hours, drifting towards us, and some quite frequent showers are | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
possible for the start of the weekend. Overnight tonight, aspect | :10:26. | :10:37. | |
of drizzle but is turning a bit misty as well with the low cloud | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
returning and fog coming back as well. It will not be as thick as it | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
has been because the breeze picks up overnight, and easterly wind which | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
will freshen through the night. It will be a keen feature of the | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
weather tomorrow. Hopefully it will chase a lot of that low cloud out of | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
the way. Temperatures pretty high, 22, possibly even 23, despite that | :10:56. | :11:02. | |
breeze. Perhaps a little bit cooler on the east facing coasts. On the | :11:02. | :11:15. | |
coastal water forecast, times of high water as well. Most of our east | :11:15. | :11:26. | |
facing ports will be on the choppy side. The beaches in the West should | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
have opted to back feet —— up to two feet. Sunshine but also some | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
scattered heavy showers on both Saturday and Sunday. Come Sunday, | :11:37. | :11:43. | |
the winds are dying down, but with a risk of some showers around. What's | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
more persistent rain turning up on Sunday —— Monday. Temperatures still | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
above average for the time of year. Goodbye. Typical, rain for the | :11:52. | :12:01. | |
weekend. That's all for now. Time to join the team at Spotlight. | :12:01. | :12:08. | |
project that had already made fibre broadband available to the first | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
time is a business is three months ahead of schedule. Pete and others | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
will be watching further progress closely. | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
A year since work started on a scientific dredging trial in | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
Falmouth Harbour, the BBC has learned any resolution is still | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
months away. The trial is looking into whether a deeper channel should | :12:25. | :12:31. | |
be dug to allow larger ships to use the port. Those who claim it's vital | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
to secure the harbour's economic future say they are frustrated with | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
the delays. People opposing the dredge on environmental grounds say | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
they still aren't getting answers to crucial questions. | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
The South West Ambulance Trust is failing to meet its targets for the | :12:45. | :12:53. | |
most serious callouts. The trust says that, in particular, ambulances | :12:53. | :12:54. | |
are getting backed up at local hospitals, which in turn affects | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
response times. A national indicator of the pressure services are under | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
July. Level six is described as a July. Level six is described as a | :13:01. | :13:06. | |
potential service failure. Shelterbox says it was among the | :13:06. | :13:12. | |
first to respond to Tuesday's Pakistan earthquake, which killed | :13:12. | :13:13. | |
more than 300 people. The Cornish—based charity already had | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
aid boxes in the Pakistani capital Islamabad, to help families | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
displaced by recent flooding. Next, we'll look at Sir Ben | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
Ainslie's triumphant transition from dinghy sailing to the Formula One of | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
yachting. Also still ahead: The new breed of sheep in demand and causing | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
a stir in the farming world. And piecing together Exeter's | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
multicultural history. South West sailor Sir Ben Ainslie | :13:37. | :13:43. | |
has taken his skills onto another level by masterminding an incredible | :13:43. | :13:48. | |
victory for Team USA in the America's Cup. As Spotlight's Dave | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
Gibbins reports, Ainslie's transfer from dinghy sailing has been one of | :13:51. | :13:57. | |
the most successful of all time. Ben Ainslie, seen here on the left, | :13:57. | :14:06. | |
has become the first British sailor to add success in the America's Cup | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
to an Olympic title. He won four Olympic medals and a silver in | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
dinghy sailing and was knighted for his services to the sport. The | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
36—year—old was called up as the tactician when the defence of the | :14:19. | :14:26. | |
trophy, the Formula one of the trophy, seemed to be heading for the | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
rock is. But with him on board, team USA —— staged one of sailing's | :14:31. | :14:38. | |
greatest comeback is to win 9—eight after they were trailing numeric | :14:38. | :14:46. | |
mine—1. We were still alive but we knew we had to get ourselves alive. | :14:46. | :14:52. | |
The sailors and designers did a great job. They did an amazing job | :14:52. | :14:58. | |
to get the boat round the track. We had one of the biggest fightbacks in | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
sport but it's an amazing achievement to add to what has | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
already been an incredible couple of years for Ben so I'm very thrilled. | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
Ben Ainslie was brought up and educated in true rogue and honed his | :15:15. | :15:22. | |
skills at a local sailing club. He also has strong links with a yacht | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
club in Falmouth. There is no question Ben's arrival changed the | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
chemistry completely and the Americans have hung on to the cup. | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
I'm not sure I wouldn't have preferred their opponents to hang | :15:34. | :15:39. | |
onto the cup, to be honest. Then now wants the America's Cup to be held | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
in Britain as he claims there is enough talent here to warrant a tilt | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
at the coveted trophy. Who is to say he won't succeed at that reject? | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
Somerset have avoided relegation from cricket's County Championship | :15:54. | :15:59. | |
Division One. One of their rivals in trouble, Derbyshire, were heavily | :15:59. | :16:00. | |
beaten today and they've gone down with Surrey. Somerset's final match | :16:00. | :16:06. | |
of the season against Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge saw | :16:06. | :16:07. | |
them close day three 173 runs behind Notts. James Hildreth hit 161 for | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
the Cidermen. A group of farmers in the South West | :16:10. | :16:20. | |
have created a new breed of sheep and it's selling all over the | :16:20. | :16:21. | |
country. The Exlana grows a much thinner fleece which self moults. | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
It's been bred to save farmers the costs involved in shearing — and | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
demand for it is so high, orders stretch into next year. Anna Varle | :16:31. | :16:32. | |
reports. It has taken Peter almost a decade | :16:32. | :16:39. | |
to develop this breed of sheep. He's just one of six farmers who got | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
together and decided to create the Exlana, a sheep which doesn't need | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
cheering. To do it, they used to genetics of breeds from around the | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
world. We've introduced five breeds and cross them with the existing | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
breed and over nine years, we've stabilised the breed to produce the | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
sort of sheep you see here, which are quite uniform and very high | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
producing. The aim of the new breed is to save farmers money. The price | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
amongst the highest it's ever been amongst the highest it's ever been | :17:17. | :17:19. | |
but it still doesn't cover the costs of sharing. —— for wall. That is why | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
this group of farmers have developed a new breed of sheep. It takes away | :17:25. | :17:31. | |
all of the costs. The breeding programme involves recording 10,000 | :17:31. | :17:36. | |
sets of data and farmers say the end result is an animal which produces | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
more lands and takes up less of their time. It takes a lot of the | :17:38. | :17:44. | |
day—to—day drudgery out of keeping sheep and we're now thinking there | :17:44. | :17:51. | |
keep a lot more sheep. I jokingly keep a lot more sheep. I jokingly | :17:51. | :17:52. | |
say that I think keeping 2000 sheep will be a part—time job. This year | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
there will be a total of 5000 Exlana use in existence, mainly in Devon. | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
The demand has been so high that orders are stretching into next | :18:04. | :18:04. | |
year. A group of researchers in Exeter | :18:04. | :18:12. | |
have been working together to unearth the city's multicultural | :18:12. | :18:13. | |
history. The project, called Telling Our Stories, Finding Our Roots, is | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
the culmination of a year's work to produce a website which people can | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
add to or learn from. John Danks reports. | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
They've grown up in Exeter but how well do they know its history? This | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
is one of the ways pupils are learning the stories of different | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
cultures, past and present. Some of the things are quite surprisingly I | :18:31. | :18:37. | |
didn't know pig hunters had links with Devon. I didn't know people had | :18:37. | :18:43. | |
done things in Exeter. They are interested to learn more about their | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
own city, the diversity, interesting things. Their history curriculum is | :18:46. | :18:55. | |
a set curriculum but this is expanded their local knowledge. The | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
school is not only using the history project but adding to it. Some of | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
these former pupils contributed their own stories, which will be | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
archived. My mum was a nurse in Singapore and then because Singapore | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
used to be part of England, she got a job here in the UK and then I | :19:14. | :19:24. | |
moved here aged eight and I've been here ever since. This woman is one | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
of the local researchers. She helped to create some of the stories. I | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
think there is still a perception that Exeter is all white. There is a | :19:30. | :19:37. | |
perception that it is all white English and that is not actually the | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
truth. That's been one of the important things about this project. | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
This spire from a church that once stood on what is now Cathedral Green | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
is a significant marker for the cultural heritage of the city. The | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
earliest record we know of a black person in Exeter was in the 1600. | :19:57. | :20:06. | |
There was a boreal of someone called Thomas who was described as being | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
the son of a Blackmore. There is a wonderful mystery. Who was Thomas? | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
How old was he? Where did he come from? It's hoped the project, called | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
Telling Our Stories, Finding Our Roots, will be rolled out across | :20:22. | :20:27. | |
other schools in the city. Plymouth's Theatre Royal has | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
reopened its doors again tonight after closing in April for a £7 | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
million regeneration project. The Drum lifts its curtain first tonight | :20:33. | :20:39. | |
with a political drama — and tomorrow night's opening on the main | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
stage has been completely sold out. Johnny Rutherford has been to see | :20:45. | :20:46. | |
the revamped theatre. This is a five—minute call. | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
Stand—by, box office. Contractors, leave the site please. We have five | :20:49. | :20:57. | |
minutes till the opening of the Theatre Royal. It's had more than | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
just a face—lift — it's had major surgery. There are last—minute | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
touches but it is ready to receive its audience. There is a new | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
entrance area and box office, a bigger lobby and shop, a new cafe | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
and an extended restaurant with an outdoor terrace for summer evenings. | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
It may look shiny and new but it is still the old Theatre Royal | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
underneath. It is the Theatre Royal of 1982 with a twist. There are | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
several finishes. The ceilings came down and we put the same ones back | :21:28. | :21:36. | |
up because we are very fond of the building and the period it | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
represents, which is when theatres really started to be built with | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
larger for yeas, in the 1980s, to be more than just a performance space | :21:46. | :21:48. | |
but a community space where people can gather, relax and take time out. | :21:48. | :21:54. | |
The entire theatre has been given an upgrade and installation and will | :21:54. | :22:00. | |
soon has three stages. This performance area will be able to | :22:00. | :22:07. | |
seek an audience of 100 as part of the second phase in the £7 million | :22:07. | :22:08. | |
project. It will be used for community and education work. The | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
main stage gets a new name, the Lyric, and there is still the Drum. | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
So the stage is set for tonight's first performance, Fight Night, | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
here. Tomorrow night, they open with War Horse. We'll bring you more on | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
that tomorrow. That is what is happening at the | :22:26. | :22:33. | |
Theatre Royal but onstage now with the weather is David. | :22:33. | :22:35. | |
You won't need to turn your heating on this weekend. It stays relatively | :22:35. | :22:48. | |
warm. Good evening. We've got some showers to come our way as we head | :22:48. | :22:54. | |
into the weekend. Some will be quite heavy but look at the temperatures. | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
Pretty much above average for the time of year. Even if we do season | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
rain, the temperatures will stay into next week. —— see some rain. | :23:03. | :23:09. | |
I'm just going to get the right graphic up... Justin, stop making it | :23:09. | :23:15. | |
all go wrong! Let's look at tomorrow's forecast. Much brighter. | :23:15. | :23:23. | |
The breeze is the key because we'll see a change in the wind strength, | :23:23. | :23:31. | |
which was to the air. The air has been stagnant over the last few | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
days. This low—pressure is drifting towards us and squeezes up the | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
isobars to give us a bit more wind. Showers on Saturday, some of them | :23:40. | :23:46. | |
turning out to be heavy. Overnight the night, a chance of the odd | :23:46. | :23:52. | |
shower but not much. The skies clear later in the night and although | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
there will be shallow mist patches, we went to see the fog. NEC fork | :23:57. | :24:07. | |
left behind will be in the far west of Cornwall, near the Isles of | :24:07. | :24:08. | |
Scilly, but they will be moved away as the wind increases. A few showers | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
left behind towards the north of Devon towards the Somerset levels, | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
but they will move away towards the morning. Tomorrow, expect a lot of | :24:18. | :24:26. | |
cloud to start the day but through the morning and into the afternoon, | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
the sunshine will work through the cloud. The breeze is easterly, which | :24:32. | :24:33. | |
tends to give dry weather so we should cease in sunny spells. The | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
exception is in West Cornwall and around the Isles of Scilly where | :24:39. | :24:45. | |
more cloud will be coming our way and it will be thick enough here to | :24:45. | :24:51. | |
give showers later in the day. And easterly breeze right along the | :24:51. | :24:52. | |
English Channel and across the Channel Islands. In easterly wind on | :24:52. | :24:58. | |
the coast and in Torbay and Portland, it may not feel as warm as | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
the temperatures show. South of the breeze, we should see temperatures | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
of 20. Here's the forecast for the Isles of Scilly. A breezy day with | :25:06. | :25:14. | |
cloud and showers. Here are the high water times. The surf this week has | :25:14. | :25:28. | |
been pretty good with very light winds. Some lovely clean waves. A | :25:28. | :25:36. | |
bit more of a stir in the air which will change the structure of the | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
waves. The north coast has the cleanest to serve but becoming a bit | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
choppy along the south coast. —— the cleanest surf. Here is the coastal | :25:45. | :25:57. | |
waters forecast. I mentioned the rain as we move into the weekend. | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
Saturday's forecast is rather cloudy. Some of the showers could be | :26:01. | :26:08. | |
quite heavy but since both the brighter weather in between, | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
generally through the day on Saturday. Quite a cloudy day with | :26:11. | :26:18. | |
keen winds. Why Sunday, the winds begin to drop. There will be breaks | :26:18. | :26:22. | |
in the cloud and we will see some widespread and persistent light rain | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
or drizzle through the day on Monday. Quite a lot happening over | :26:26. | :26:35. | |
the next few days but the good news is, night—time temperatures not | :26:35. | :26:36. | |
really falling very much, and daytime temperatures holding up | :26:37. | :26:38. | |
quite well. Have a good night. Before we go, a reminder that we're | :26:38. | :26:53. | |

The main stories again: The former chairman of the Royal Cornwall | :27:42. | :27:42. | |
